Excerpted from the folio (translated from French), Georges Braque's paintings inspired by Varengeville were drawn and printed on the presses of l'imprimerie Arte, as well as the poem by Jacques Prevert of which this folio is the original edition. Finished printing on September 23, 1968.
About the Publication:
The folio Varengeville was conceived as a tribute to the village of Varengeville-sur-Mer in Normandy, where Georges Braque spent much of his later life and created some of his most contemplative works. Published by Maeght Editeur in 1968, this folio pairs Braque’s serene lithographs with the evocative poetry of Jacques Prevert, forming a dialogue between image and word that celebrates the harmony of art and nature. Each composition captures the tranquil spirit of the coastal landscape that inspired Braque’s late oeuvre—its sea, sky, and shifting light distilled into essential forms. Printed at l'Imprimerie Arte under the supervision of Adrien Maeght, the Varengeville folio exemplifies the publisher’s tradition of uniting the great modern artists and poets of the twentieth century in finely crafted editions.
About the Artist:
Georges Braque (1882–1963) was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker whose pioneering vision transformed the course of 20th-century art. A central figure in modernism and the co-founder of Cubism alongside Pablo Picasso, Braque redefined visual perception by breaking objects into geometric forms and reassembling them from multiple perspectives, creating a new visual language that bridged the gap between abstraction and reality. His early work was influenced by the vibrant colors and expressive energy of the Fauvist painters Henri Matisse and Andre Derain, before evolving toward the more analytical and structured compositions inspired by Paul Cezanne’s theories of form and perspective. Braque’s collaboration with Picasso between 1908 and 1914 marked one of the most fertile and revolutionary periods in art history, resulting in works that challenged traditional notions of space, depth, and illusion. Throughout his career, Braque maintained a deep interest in harmony, rhythm, and balance, infusing his still lifes, landscapes, and later reliefs with poetic subtlety and intellectual rigor. He moved among a brilliant circle of contemporaries including Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Marc Chagall, Juan Gris, Fernand Leger, and Amedeo Modigliani—artists united in their pursuit of new modes of artistic expression. Braque’s influence extended well beyond his own era, shaping the creative approaches of later modernists such as Alexander Calder, Alberto Giacometti, Salvador Dali, Joan Miro, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Duchamp, and Man Ray, all of whom drew inspiration from his structural innovations and aesthetic integrity. His works are held in major museum collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Centre Pompidou, the Tate, and the Guggenheim, where they continue to embody the essence of modern artistic thought and visual poetry. The highest price ever paid for a Georges Braque artwork is approximately $15 million USD, achieved in 2013 at Christie’s New York for Paysage a la Ciotat (1907).
